Gewufang is located in the west of Liyang City, adjacent to Ximen Station.
Ximen Station was originally a service area for traders from the Central Plains, but it was temporarily closed due to the summer famine, so it was planned as a temporary shelter for refugees fleeing famine. However, as the residents of Kino built wooden villages in the adjacent Xishan Mountain and moved to
Since then, this function has gradually been lost, and now it is just a place for transporting materials from Gewufang.
As for Xishan, it was originally just an unknown barren mountain on the edge of Liyang City. It was first rented by Gewufang as a base, and then gradually became more and more lively as the residents of Kino moved there. I don’t know when the nickname "Wild Mountain" spread -
Here, "Yozao" is actually a new word composed of "Kino" and "Fangzao". Although there is nothing new in the method, no one would be bothered by it, so it is adopted by default.
Zichen Pavilion assigned the wild mountain to the jurisdiction of Fangzao Division, and Fangzao Division entrusted it to Gewufang for operation. Although it was only a left-hand transfer, in terms of results, from Muzhai to the workshop to the main building
Etc., all the facilities on Yezuo Mountain are actually under the jurisdiction of Gewufang. This model is somewhat similar to the way the county government on the earth side allocates land to investment companies for building factories and operations, but the management is more rough.
If arranged by location, the buildings in Yezooshan from top to bottom are the main building, the workshop, the school ground and the wooden village. Regardless of the first two, at least regarding the construction and operation of the wooden village, Gu Chen has full authority to the residents of Kinye
I did it myself, at most I could ask Wen Hui to help and communicate.
Since there is no need to worry about the invasion of wild monsters in Liyang City, the Muye people have not set up defense fortifications in Muzhai. With materials frequently coming in and out every day, Muzhai has naturally evolved into an open layout, and Zhu Shen and others have stepped into it.
There was no obstruction when entering Muzhai.
"Ye Zuoshan? Humph, does that guy finally know that he is a low-level little character?"
The corners of Zhu Shen's mouth curved into a mocking arc.
Although he was not blocked, it was clear that there was a lot of land in front of him, and along the way there were naughty children having mud fights, and peasant women carrying fruits and vegetables on their backs to sell. The rich rustic atmosphere that hit his face, for Zhu Shen, who was born in Qinzaosi
, it’s as unacceptable as wading barefoot in a muddy pond.
When he passed Muzhai and climbed up the slope, Zhu Shen's feelings became more intense.
"This is unreasonable! What a shame! What the hell is that guy named Gu doing!?"
With the title of a good soldier and an imperial envoy, if he were to be replaced by another leader, he would definitely have the noble status of being invited by the eight-carriage sedan chair. Absolutely no one would dare to let him climb the shabby mountain road (which has actually been repaired and widened) with dog-like hard work.
, from time to time I still get strange and mocking looks from shirtless laborers on the roadside.
Zhu Shen was filled with indignation and couldn't help but curse.
But having said that, if he didn't show off the arrogant attitude of confronting Wu at the beginning, and communicated with Liyang Mansion to some extent about the itinerary, then Zichen Pavilion would not be stingy to the point of not even sending a bearer. But this
There was no point regretting it at the time, so Zhu Shen could only carry a gorgeous but heavy brocade dress and climb all the way to the workshop halfway up the mountain with the help of his entourage.
As you approach the workshop, the atmosphere gradually changes, and there are also more checkpoints on the road.
The people responsible for checking the checkpoints are a few selected capable craftsmen. In addition, a group of pioneers can be seen a little further away——
This group of pioneers, composed of a bald man, a female assassin, and a crossbowman, should have been hired as bodyguards. Although they may not be able to compare with the combination of the thunder sword user and the destroyer, their strength has reached the level of light.
To the extent that it can be understood with the naked eye, at least the stick and sword users accompanying Zhu Shen can no longer act arrogantly.
"You have to queue up to get in. Take out your license plate and have it ready."
"If you don't hold the license plate, get out of here! No idlers are allowed in, don't you see?"
In order to prevent the leakage of skills from their own workshops, the craftsmen who were selected as sentry posts were very dedicated. Even the cage trucks transporting materials had to be carefully inspected before being released, and idlers were not allowed to approach. Zhu Shen and others
Of course I was stopped.
"A mere barbarian actually dares to block the imperial envoy!?"
"I don't care what kind of imperial envoy you are, anyway, don't even think about passing without holding the license plate!"
"You rude fellow! Why don't you back down? Don't force me to take action!"
"Want to take action? On Gewufang's territory?"
Li Yang was originally far away from the Central Plains, and the craftsmen were all residents of Kinoji, so they had no idea about imperial envoys. Even if Zhu Shen moved out of his official title of inspector, he could not make way for the craftsmen. The two groups of people confronted each other.
It caused commotion on the ramp and even affected the passage of cage trucks carrying materials behind.
Not far from the square gate, a fat official who was counting supplies heard the commotion and looked up.
The fat official is none other than Wen Hui, the former Kinojizheng and later the secretary of Gewufang. He is currently responsible for managing the operation of the workshop and Muzhai in Gewufang. After all, Wen Hui comes from an orthodox bureaucracy. Compared with the settlement
The people later had a more accurate understanding of concepts such as the imperial court and the government.
When he heard the name "Imperial Envoy" coming from the commotion in Fangmen from a distance, Wen Hui couldn't help being shocked. He immediately threw away his pen and ink and ran towards Fangmen. In front of the rioting gate, at this time, even the pioneering team who was waiting at the rear
They all stepped in and faced each other a few steps away from the sword wielder and the staff wielder. Wen Hui pushed through the crowd and squeezed in.
"Uh, may I ask, who is the imperial envoy?"
"...Hmph, finally here comes someone who can talk?"
Zhu Shen and others, who were surrounded by people, also forced themselves to hold on, and were relieved when Wen Hui came out.
"I came just in time. I came to Liyang for inspection under the orders of the Qin Zao Si. The Qin Zao Si is in charge of the affairs of the world, but I can't even enter the quasi-zao workshop. Can you explain what's going on?"
"Qin, Qin Zao Si? Inspecting Liyang?"
Wen Hui was stunned when he heard this.
No matter how the imperial rule declined, at least in name the twelve princes were still loyal to the Shang Li imperial family. This framework lasted for thousands of years. Even if Wen Hui was removed from the bureaucracy at this time, he still had to regard the imperial envoys as their own.
thing.
Of course, what's more important is that Wen Hui, who was expelled from the system, can no longer receive timely notifications. In addition, he has been busy with workshop affairs during this period, so he is unaware of the evil Jinbo forces behind Zhu Shen.
, as well as the various conflicts that broke out with Liyang Mansion before. Without these understandings, Wen Hui would certainly not be wary or hostile towards Zhu Shen and others.
Moreover, Wen Hui is a member of the lowest-level official, and the highest official he has ever met is Zhang Ji, the tall and lanky man who is currently transferred to the Secret Investigation Department. When he suddenly saw the imperial envoy from the top of the bureaucracy, he subconsciously regarded him as
He was placed in a very high position and even asked questions with trepidation.
"Excuse me, does the imperial envoy want to visit Gewufang?"
